• Can I use a legitimate DVD Win7 product key to activate the operating system already installed?

  I used a DVD Windows 7 Home Premium I bought from Amazon to install on 2 computers, THEN discovered the 2nd computer would not accept the product key.  I don't want to reinstall the OS and I can't seem to find a place online legitimately sell just a product key, so if I buy another DVD on Amazon, the product key that comes with it will allow the existing installation to activate, or do I have to spend a day or more to reload the operating system, drivers, programs, settings etc, just to stinking activation?

  This information is partially incorrect. OEM System Builder licenses come with a product key.

  Yes, it does not require a clean install, but because you already have Windows 7 Home Premium installed to use your retail disk, all you have to do is to change the product key, no installation required.

• HOW CAN I GET A HP LASERJET 4V IN ORDER TO PROPERLY USE THE OPERATING SYSTEM TO XP PRO AND USB USING A PARALLEL CABLE?

  HOW CAN I GET A HP LASERJET 4V IN ORDER TO PROPERLY USE THE OPERATING SYSTEM TO XP PRO AND USB USING A PARALLEL CABLE?

  The printer works at all with this cable?

  The cable has recognized and installed by Windows XP when you logged on to the computer?

  If the cable has been recognized, what steps have you taken to install the printer then (be as accurate and complete as possible)?

  You get an error message?  If so, please provide, without paraphrasing.

  This printer has already been installed on this computer?  If so, with what type of connection?

  And especially, what is the brand and model of the USB to parallel cable?  Many of them do not work.  See, for example, the comments here , which suggests that 25% of the units will simply not work.  This seems to be one of these products you should buy at a local store, rather than on the Internet, then you can continue taking it back until you get a working unit.

• Can someone tell me how to upgrade the operating system on the MacPro?

  I have a MacPro1.1 which works fine, but now I can't use LightroomCC on that because the OS is no longer supported. Can someone tell me how to upgrade the operating system on the MacPro?

  Your Mac Pro 2006 supports only as high as Lion unless you use a hack.

  If you want Lion then order a code to download here:

  and then use the code in the Mac App Store.

  If you need higher that the Lion then Google for the hack

• Image vs cloning on the new HARD drive with an operating system already installed.

  First of all, I'm NOT tech savvy.  I apologize in advance.

  After several warnings error that my hard drive was in danger of failing, I was finally able to install a new HARD drive.  Windows has had some difficulty in installing Windows 7 to new HARD drive, but I finally found a solution.  So here's my current situation.

  I have the main drive (old) (C:\) which has Windows 7 and all my data on it (it is a Seagate 1 TB HARD drive that came installed on my Dell Studio XPS 8100).  I installed a new WD Black 1 TB HARD drive and was finally able to get Windows to download on it (it reads now like two distinct? score?) E:\ and F:\) see photo.

  

  Now, my question is this...

  I want to save all my data from my old HDD and put it on my new HARD drive.  One that I have this, I would like to remove the old Windows 7 HDD and use it as "extra" space

  Make a clone of the old HARD drive to the new since I have already installed the new Windows 7 HARD disk?

  Please advise and please keep in mind that I might say things correctly and I can't understand though if the answers are on my level.  I appreciate any help!

  OK, so here is what I would do to try to avoid problems of compatibility or driver, as far as I can:
  -Turn off your system completely and unplug from the power outlet wall
  -Disconnect the old drive in your system (SATA and power cables)
  -Place the new WD Black on the main port SATA (should be labeled SATA0)
  -Turn on your system and put your OS drive you can do a completely new installation of the operating system.
  S ' ensure that you have updated all the drivers and the operating system after the installation
  -Turn off your system and plug your old drive
  -Turn on the system in the BIOS and make sure the WD Black has the priority starting on the old HDD
  -Boot into the operating system and copy all data from the start of your old disk partition that you want to keep for the WD Black
  -Go to disk management and delete the old boot partitions and the old drive system
  -The old HDD should be your secondary drive now and you can freely move files between the two disks
  N ' have in mind that due to the new copy of the OS, you must reinstall all the games and programs in order to operate because of the new system registry

  This should put you on the safe side and prevent any compatibility issue or driver which is possible during a clone or restore procedure. :)

• Why I can boot into safe mode with internet connection, use the operating system, etc., but can not open a normal session without password administrator; who got the disabled.

  OEM Vista Home Premium. Normal startup does not recognize the password. When you click User icon it says: "your account has been disabled. Please, see your system administrator"I looked in the mirror, but it did not help. Booted, press F8, went in safe mode with network connection. Everything seemed to be there. Surf the internet and then started to ask me why I don't have a password here when I did normal start-up. What is the password? Check "Microsoft Answers", but what I came out which was, I need to reinstall the OS, which I can't do it without a drive anyway.  I thought that I've used it before, I knew the password. This computer has been recently "reinstalled" internal folder 'restore '. Something must happen. A unknown password can be removed from safe mode? Ultimately how reinstall you a clean Vista when all you have is the key to product and no local or OEM support? What would be the difference between a password reset disk and the OS disk.  The two would probably be stored side by side. Not to mention that most of us Dummies want to just surf to buy, and if we can not surf, we cannot buy. Dummies help us get back on the internet, Microsoft. At least take care of this shot.

  Hi PAM,.

  In Safe Mode, try to activate the high administrator account http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-windows-vista/.  Then log in using account and use it to solve problems with your normal administrator account login via control panel / user accounts / manage other accounts.  Find the one you want and make the appropriate changes to fix it.  If you can't, then you need to address as a corrupt account by using the following procedure:

  To fix this use http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.  If this is the only available administrator profile (you must be an administrator to solve this problem), activate the hidden administrator account (HAA) (i.e. what you did above, or you can do this by using these instructions instead: http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9001970/How_to_access_the_true_Administrator_account_in_Windows_Vista?taxonomyId=17&pageNumber=1.)

  Once that is done, don't forget to disable the HAA to save it in case it is necessary once again and for safety reasons (since people often try to hack into systems using this account).  Do NOT use the HAA as your administrator account because if you lose the only administrator on the system account or it is damaged again, then you're watered.

  The fact that it says it is disabled gives me to think that you can use the guest or built-in Administrator account already (as normally, you cannot disable an account, but you can with these two which cannot be deleted and only disabled).

  The password reset disk is only good if created before that you need and only to restore a password, do not to activate a disabled account.  Another thing that goes beyond passwords here.

  A recovery disk allows you to do some advanced options of recovery by booting the disk, but it will help you restore the operating system (or help you with this problem either).

  An Installation of Vista genuinve disc (the operating system drive as you seem to be describing) is a disk that contains the operating system.  That, if it is the original disc supplied with the system and is exactly the same as the product OEM key that you must allow you to do a clean OS install (although I would be first backup you'll pretty much lost everything in the process).  The following should help: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-vista.html.

  If you have a factory Conditions or a recovery Partition restore disk, then these are alternatives to a clean install if you don't have this disc.  But the procedure varies according to the manufacturer, make and model of PC.  Most of the manufacturers will allow you to buy these records of restoration (for a fee) If you cannot do it with a recovery Partition cannot create diskettes from the recovery Partition or have no other option.  Visit the support site of the computer for information on this topic, available options, and related costs.

  If you cannot enable the built-in Administrator account and cannot access the system in normal mode with this or another administrator account, then I'm afraid a clean install or restore to factory conditions is your only option.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• disk space issues: How can I find out which components of the operating system I use is more to free additional disk space?

  HI: I have problems with disk space; I went to Windows Help and read that if I go into Add/Remove programs who said I could remove programs or components of operating system I no longer use. I remove some programs that I don't use anymore, but I do not know what operating system components I should delete!  Little help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

  Before you remove the services I would remove all but the most recent backup and restore point.  Then make a disk for temporary files Cleanup Wizard.  You can make you smaller file page, if you do not use put into hibernation, you can save 4-8 space gigis.

  What is the pc suitabel for me?

  The current Windows operating system is Windows 7. All new computers (except for netbooks that are yet to come with XP) will come with it. Most of the new computers will be able to do what you want without any problem. For the video-conference, consider buying a laptop with a built-in webcam. If you are looking for a desktop computer, make sure that any webcam that you buy is supported in Windows 7.

  Windows XP is an operating system very well, but it's two operating systems behind now. Was there a particular reason you want to use XP? MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• I managed to successfully install a copy of 'clean' of Vista on D:\. How can I remove the operating system incorrectly installed D:\?

  Thank you Mick: This information has been useful and I'm glad I read through it to better understand how to work the partiions.  Having said that, however, I need not expand c:\ and/or remove d:\.  I just need to remove a version of Vista installed drive d:\ I placed on it in error.  At the time, I didn't know I don't follow the prompts closely enough and managed to put a second copy of Vista OS 32-bit Home Basic edition on the wrong drive.

  Since then, I have installed correctly copy 'clean' Vista on c:\ and things are now going smoothly.

  Now, I just need to understand how to properly uninstall Vista from the wrong drive d:\.

  Can anyone help with this?  Thank you very much.

• HP Pavilion dv4-1120br: doubts about the BIOS update for my model with the operating system current instaled.

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion dv4-1120br, I know that this model of HP laptop is old, but I instaled the 64 bit of Windows 10 on my machine and saw that my BIOS is version F.30 and the last of them available on the site of HP F.66 has.

  The problem is that this model is not suport for Windows 10 because, as I said, is too old. Can I download and run the update of the BIOS for Windows 7 64-bit available in the Web site, or I need to downgrade my OS to Windows 7, update the BIOS and then pass it back to Windows 10?

  Thanks for the help!

  Cantarino

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  Your second proposal is correct - as the updates to the BIOS on the HP site are specific to the OS version and if you try to run one for Win7 in Win10, it will refuse to run.

  Good luck
